Breakfast was delicious - almost too much food! Not easy to get food in the evenings though so we ate out, which was easy enough.

The staff were excellent, the breakfast food was also really good. But I felt the property was a showing signs of lack of care. It was just small things, for example: the tables in the dining area were marble topped, most of which were visibly chipped. One of the blinds in the bedroom was frayed at the edges. The bathroom door was a sliding glass door which got stuck every time if you fully closed it. Once you spot one, the other little flaws become more obvious. In addition, our bedroom was located directly opposite the cleaning/linen room, the door to which was open for the duration of our stay. The room itself was clean and comfortable. Although it was facing the front of the building, which is on a main road. It would benefit from sound proofing. That said, the view across the park was really nice. The location is about 10-15 minutes walk to the city centre, and you can benefit from walking through the park part of the way. Overall, it was a nice stay. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Check in was easy and swift. I wouldn't class this as an exceptional stay though.

Stayed in January on one of the colder weekends. We had three rooms and two of them were incredibly cold overnight as they only seemed to be heated via the aircon which switched itself off. Hotel was good, good location and has a nice car and restaurant. Would recommend

Nice room, well appointed with a comfortable bed. I was on the ground floor and it was very noisy until around 10:30pm. I was only a few steps from the bar and atrium areas which is why it was so noisy. There was no internal lock or chain for the door which is just a personal preference. The staff were all really nice and breakfast was good. Excellent location
